Tooth Extractions

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

"Wisdom tooth, as commonly known, is actually the third molar tooth. For most of us wisdom teeth are the last teeth in the mouth, usually erupted during the late teens or early 20's. For most of us wisdom teeth are either fully erupted, partially erupted or do not erupt at all. It is common to have some discomfort during eruption of wisdom teeth, epecially the lowers. The most common complaint is pain and swelling. This is normally followed by fever, difficulties in mouth opening, and of course eating. These will normally subside after a few days, however some will require a visit to the dentist or Oral Surgeons for cleaning and a course of antibiotics and painkillers.
Subsequently the teeth might require removal. Since most of wisdom teeth, mainly the lower, are impacted, removal means a minor oral surgical procedure."

Mouth Guard (Teeth Grinding)

A mouthguard can be prescribed by the dentist to avoid tooth grinding. Mouthguards can protect the teeth from grinding against each other, causing excessive wear.
There are mouthguards for teeth grinding at night (nightguards) and for teeth clenching during the daytime.

Dental implants support dental restorative treatments like dental crowns, dental bridges, dentures, or sometimes for dental braces.

Lumineers

Lumineers are ultra-thin and translucent veneers to cover your tooth in the appearance of a natural enamel. Lumineers are very much thinner than veneers, so usually less or no tooth reduction is needed before putting one on.

Teeth Crown (Dental Crown)

Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth.
Crowns are also used to attach bridges, cover implants, prevent a cracked tooth from becoming worse.Crowns also serve an aesthetic use, and are applied when a discolored or stained tooth needs to be restored to its natural appearance.

Teeth Filling

A dental filling is a type of dental restoration procedure done by filling a decaying or a broken and damaged tooth with specific types of materials. There are different types of dental filling materials like gold, silver or amalgam fillings, and composite resins.

Amalgam Fillings

Amalgam (silver) fillings are resistant to wear and are popular choices as dental fillings. However, due to their dark colour, they are more noticeable, so are usually used in less visible teeth, like molars or teeth at the back.

Composite Resin Fillings

Composite (plastic) resins are matched to be the same colour as your teeth and therefore used where a natural appearance is desired. The ingredients are mixed and placed directly into the cavity, where they harden. Composites may not be the ideal material for large fillings as they may chip or wear over time. They can also become stained from coffee, tea or tobacco, and do not last as long as other types of fillings generally from three to 10 years.

Tooth Extractions

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

"Wisdom tooth, as commonly known, is actually the third molar tooth. For most of us wisdom teeth are the last teeth in the mouth, usually erupted during the late teens or early 20's. For most of us wisdom teeth are either fully erupted, partially erupted or do not erupt at all. It is common to have some discomfort during eruption of wisdom teeth, epecially the lowers. The most common complaint is pain and swelling. This is normally followed by fever, difficulties in mouth opening, and of course eating. These will normally subside after a few days, however some will require a visit to the dentist or Oral Surgeons for cleaning and a course of antibiotics and painkillers.
Subsequently the teeth might require removal. Since most of wisdom teeth, mainly the lower, are impacted, removal means a minor oral surgical procedure."

Mouth Guard (Teeth Grinding)

A mouthguard can be prescribed by the dentist to avoid tooth grinding. Mouthguards can protect the teeth from grinding against each other, causing excessive wear.
There are mouthguards for teeth grinding at night (nightguards) and for teeth clenching during the daytime.
